Sixth annual Future of Video will be hosted November 14-16 at the Marina del Rey, CA

Parks Associates’ latest research on streaming services shows Netflix and Prime Video enjoy the longest subscriber lifetimes, as both services boast an average duration per subscriber of more than four years each. Both streaming services have consistently maintained the longest subscriber tenure over the past several years of Parks Associates surveys, and their average subscription duration increased by three to four months from Q3 2022 to Q1 2023.

“Households are still experimenting with different services as they evolve over time to build their own service stack,” said Eric Sorensen, Director, Streaming Video Tracker, Parks Associates. “Service consolidation has changed subscription dynamics, as Showtime has become part of Paramount+ and HBO is now Max, but even as consolidation occurs, it is having a limited effect on churn for these services. Premium service subscriptions average around two years, which suggests consumers are getting better value out of the consolidated content.”

Parks Associates, which recently released its top 10 list of video streaming services, will host hundreds of industry leaders at the sixth annual Future of Video: OTT, Pay TV, and Digital Media on November 14-16 at the Marina del Rey Marriott in Marina del Rey, California.
